Meh...why bother?
Here's the thing...
They basically come here to offer us something similar to other SEO tools who have come to AppSumo and show us no advantage in going with them over the other tool.
Why would I leave another SEO tool I already have to use yours when you provide zero advantage over the other?
400 Keywords a week refresh is nothing; it should be at least 700 considering it uses the same resources as 100 daily refresh rate, as well as 100 daily keyword refresh is nothing considering it is only 25 keywords if you are watching your rank in 4 cities.
I also don't understand the savings listed...
$588 down to $49?!
I've always seen the LTD price compared to the yearly cost and this is only a fraction of the lowest plan they offer ($29 per month which equates to $348 per year)...
Let's forget the fact they only give you 1000 backlinks per project; okay so they give you 100 keywords daily refresh and the lowest plan is 250 keywords daily refresh which means you get only 40% of the lowest plan which is $348 per year on a month to month payment plan, therefore it's really $348*.4= $139.20 down to an LTD price of $49.
Personally, I'd rather of seen another LTD make its way on AppSumo.
Anyways seems like most Sumo-lings see what this deal actually is...sorry to say I'll be refunding as there are better options than this.

May 9, 2024Hello Sumoling,
Thanks for taking time and looking at our deal and writing the review, let me try and answer the points you have made one by one:
1. 700 weekly keywords vs 400: This should have been the case if RankTracking was our only feature we offered, but as you know we do offer a lot more so Weekly to Daily can not have a direct 7X as all the other features we offer other than RankTracking remain similar in Weekly plan.
2. Value of the deal: Again you can not just equate the value based on keyword tracking as there are other features as well so saying 250>100 should mean 40% of the price is not true.
We also added Website Auditor in the app sumo exclusive deal which is not a part of our normal plans and when we do add it we plan to increase our prices, so that's what leads to the differential price you see.
Our aim to come to app sumo is only to give a deal to people which they can't resist, As much as we would love to give you more than 400, its not viable for us as a business to do so without being able to offer the service in the coming years, And we are not here to cease to exist. We are in the market for over 5 years and we plan to stay and dominate, and you have a lot of other features in the software which have very liberal limits (most of our research tools).
On top of that we will be launching a lot of new stuff in the coming months so this life time deal will give you value not just now but for years to come.
Looking for some support here, and perhaps a change in mind on the deal value.
We will not let the AppSumo community down!
We are doing a webinar with all app sumo users soon, and also sending a video of how the software works later today to easen up the process of understanding the software.
What we have seen in the past is that when ever some one takes a full demo of the software they are wowed by it and also understand the features much better as our UX currently is not 100% there, but we are already in the process of releasing our new UI ..
Will highly appreciate if you do see the videos or join the webinar and give it another shot!
